# whisper sweet nothings to your computer

- _Using a graphical program is like flirting with your computer; using The Terminal is like whispering instructions in its ear. Graphics hold you at arm's length; Words are more intimate than touch._

- _To command anything in the world, the witch needs only discover its True Name. Even magick obeys certain laws: these she uncovers and bends to her will, using Words of power sacred and profane._

- _Graphics: finite. The Terminal: infinite._

- _The learned adept asked,_ "Which is the true path — graphical, terminal, or AI?" _The teacher said,_ "Do everything twice." _Upon hearing this, they were enlightened._

- _And the Word was made flash, and dwelt among us, and we beheld Its glory, the glory as of the only begotten of The Terminal, full of grace and truth._
